MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Golf (YG55 AHP) between July 2008 and January 2019.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.
